This is a Little Random…
Is it random to celebrate a day of randomness when it’s on the calendar?
Either way, any day filled with randomness is a great day.
February 17, 2016 is, in fact, “Random Acts of Kindness Day.” The greatest part about this occasion is that the simplest of gestures can make all the difference for someone. We all have those days and it’s incredible what a spontaneous spark of goodness can do for us. That flicker is just what we need, like happily looking at a birthday candle being lit.
How about we do something randomly nice every day of the year?
It would actually be pretty random since nobody would see it coming.
Happy Monday!
Steven Spielberg turned 69 this past Friday.
Arguably the greatest director of all-time, Spielberg has become a film genre himself. Kids and adults love and admire his visual storytelling, for different and similar reasons. For any person who loves movies, a Spielberg foundation is a necessity. Without experiencing the magic of Spielberg, it’s impossible to experience the true magic of movies.
And that’s why he’s celebrated with such fanfare.
That’s why it’s surprising that some people within the film industry didn’t see his burgeoning genius for granted from the very beginning of his bright, trailblazing career. The father of the summer blockbuster (Jaws) received a few nominations from the Academy for his work with the great white shark.
The video below offers Spielberg’s reaction from back in 1976.
People don’t always remember who won Oscars, but they will remember Steven Spielberg’s golden legacy.
Trust yourself and your vision and the right people will see it the right way.
Happy Birthday Steven Spielberg!
#29
Today is my 29th birthday!
It’s surreal to believe this day has arrived. Strangely enough, it’s felt like I’ve lived several lives already. From childhood to the teenage years to college to post-college and then back at graduate school, there have been ups and downs and seemingly everything in between. In this sense, life is about phases. And I’m hoping that upon my completion of my MBA in just four weeks (4 weeks!), that this new phase I’ve been working extremely hard towards will finally begin in ways not even I could have imagined.
Will 29 be that year? It feels like it might be…
The following video has been posted on Jimmy’s Daily Planet before, but it’s just one of my favorite clips.
A great song coupled with inspiring energy:
Ladies and gentlemen, be sure to “viva la vida” today!
Happy Monday!
Since today is my niece’s birthday and because she is a fan of that little independent film called Frozen, Jimmy’s Daily Planet will post the only video/song that can be posted for such a celebratory occasion.
You know the words…
Happy Monday and Happy Birthday to My Niece!
